First, we must let:
x = number of tickets intended for adults
y = number of tickets intended for children.
a. Write in terms of x the number of tickets for children
Solution:
x + y = 28 ⇔ y = 28 - x (equation 1)
To answer in terms of x:
no. of tickets for tickets for children = 28 - x
b. the amount spent on tickets for adults
Solution: $30 is the cost of ticket per adult and there are x number of tickets intended for adults.
Therefore,
amount spent on ticket for adults = 30x
c. the amount spent on the tickets.
Solution:
$ 15 = cost of ticket per child
$ 30 = cost of ticket per adult
total amount spent on tickets = 30x + 15y ⇒ (equation2)
substitute equation 1 to equation 2.
(equation 1) y = 28 - x
(equation 2) total amount spent on tickets = 30x + 15y
total amount spent on tickets = 30x + 15(28-x)
total amount spent on tickets = 30x + 420 - 15x
total amount spent on tickets = 15x + 420
Answer:
3/6x • 4/6x
12/6x
2x
Step-by-step explanation:
you would change both fractions to have the same denominator then simplify if needed
Hello!
If Katia can buy packages of jars for $9, we can determine how many packages she can purchase with $45 by using the formula:
45/9 = 5
We divide the total number of money that she has by the amount of money one package of jars costs. Now, the question also asks how many jars she can buy, not just how many packages.
We know that she can buy 5 packages, and that there are 12 jars in each package. To find the total number of jars she can buy, we will multiply 5 by 12.
5 x 12 = 60
Katia can buy 60 jars with $45.
I hope this helps you! Have a lovely day!
